3 Great Ways to Build up SEO for Your Blog



Weekend Reading

We’re deep in the throws of our blogging and time commitment series. I have found that many of us are juggling various responsibilities (really, who isn’t when it comes to blogging and balancing home commitments) and I’m excited to share some tips as well as learn from others in the process. We’ve also got our series on how to make money blogging going on which is always a very popular topic to go over. Towards that end, please speak up about different topics you would like to see covered by Blogelina. If there is something you would like to see us write about, please let us know in the comments and I’ll look at covering it. I’ve made a bit of a change with the weekly round-up, and will be highlighting one blog post in particular that stood out and then share a few others beyond that. If there is a common theme for the week, I’ll center around those. Otherwise I’ll just share my favorite posts from the week. Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy some of the selected weekend reading.
